We've had up to seven cats indoors at one point (mum and her brood) plus one other. That was really tough to deal with but far better'n letting them outside. Litter box duty was a chore certainly but after we found homes for the little dears we were back to a normal routine. Additionally, we de-claw them and this makes keeping them indoors a far easier proposition whilst maintaining the integrity of the furniture!

(And before you go off on a rant, from years of personal experience, de-clawing cats is not the big horrible deal that so many make it out to be. Not one of our many, many cats over the years has suffered infection, back or hip problems or any other manifestation of the phalange removal.)

And insist they wear bells outside so they have less chance of slaughtering birds and local wildlife.

Better still - keep your cats within your own garden. That way they are not at risk of getting pregnant / impregnating other cats and THEY WONT CR@P IN OTHER PEOPLES GARDENS OR PUBLIC SPACES.

Dog owners, rightly, are required to keep their animals under control and to clear up their mess. The same should apply to cat owners. The risks to children as a result of coming into contact with faeces is the same for felines as canine.

It's a bit more difficult to keep a cat in your garden because they can usually climb out! I have had cats in the past and now all my neighbours cats use my garden as their public convenience which is most unpleasant.

Ten quid?

No need to spend a penny if Bhudeeka is still offering her free of charge service that she advertised on August 30th last year.

What was it she said at the time?

"Bring a cat to me - any cat I will nueture it!"
